Comparing mRNA vaccines to generative AI models like Large Language Models (LLMs) isn’t entirely apt because effectiveness of later was proven, is not matter of opinion. 

Generative AI with LLM is not a product, it’s spark of new AI revolution, similarly like CRISPR and quantum computing will be when similar breakthrough will be achieved like ChatGPT achieved in November 2022.

Just embrace it. Resistance is futile.

Not the product. The marketing.

One area is being flooded right now: corporate education a.k.a. instructional videos staff has to watch. Swiss firms and the state spent dozens of millions each year to translate into >4 languages.

Now there are products producing all versions at once from a script (!) or from a master video. Licenses are around 20k right now. Millions of media and translation workers will be out if work in three years across the world. Some products can "speak" dialects...
